I'M ON THE HIGHWAY TO HELL
Time for Pypa to issue new order n 2271. Military councils of the fronts and first of all front commanders should:a) Unconditionally eliminate retreat moods in the truck drivers and with a firm hand bar propaganda that we can and should move logistics further east, and that such retreat will cause no harm;b) Unconditionally remove from their posts and send to the High Command for court-martial those army commanders who have allowed unauthorized truck driver withdrawals from occupied positions, without the order of the Front command.c) Form within each Front from one up to three (depending on the situation) penal battalions (800 persons) where truck drivers of all service arms who have been guilty of a breach of discipline due to cowardice or bewilderment will be sent, and put them on more difficult sectors of the front to give them an opportunity to redeem by blood their crimes against the Motherland.
>>65272694The zigger pulling a Burning Man while running away is a nice touch. Maybe zizzler is more of a correct term?
mmm roast zigies ))))
>>65272696to be fair, the ziggers don't really retreat. honestly , it's surprising how they constantly march to their deaths with no major collapse
sevastopol burns
This month will likely close at ~12k destroyed vehicles.The middle strike campaign that we saw at the end of last month, was not a one of.
>>65272704Sevatopool's closed due to raids...again
>>65272704What was hit? Any better footage?
>>65272714the Balaklava thermal power plant I believe. There is/was a huge drone raid over all of Crimea last night
>>65272714Tavriia and Balaklava thermal power along with the Kacha airfield were said to be hit. i can only find some vids of AD in action, but people will probably post more BDA vids soon since it's daytime there now
>>65272725> i can only find some vids of ADThe two videos of AD being used sounded more akin to guys lazily shooting their AKs in the air and then stopping after 5-10 rounds>>65272711Whole city is said to be without power outside of emergency generators and the like
>>65272725>>65272724I dont think you're supposed to serve the Baklava when its hot
>>65272724literally a war crime
>>65272699I think you'll want to patent the Zizzler before KFC or McDonalds does a run on it
>>65272725>more BDA vidsThe area might be at a point where power outages mean few mobile towers in operation.
>>65272735Oh, man, I forgot about that one. Hey, at least the HEAT jet probably cored him out before really felt the burn.
>>65272704Can't see shit someone needs to turn on the lights
>>65272734>1) wipe out hundreds of town in Ukraine>2) bomb cities, hospitals, schools>3) ???>4) Why do they bomb our power plants and trains? This is evil!
>>65272734Slow the fuck down, woman, I want to read your bullshit.
>>65272747Maybe we can turn off the lights even more so it remains dark all day.
>>65272734>I can’t stand Russian dolls. They’re so full of themselves>>65272742There's all sorts of crazy going on with adrenaline too
>>65272735here's a new one. even the zigger telegram channels are having trouble explaining it
>>65272750A fast tongue and lips will be an asset for her, I guess.
>>65272764Its the new Russian Infantry doctrine maybe>no bonk with stickDoctrine doesn't mention hulk smash and wrasslin the drone
>>65272764>drag drone into dugout>burn to deathEverything is full of logs to push the drone out, I do not understand
>>65272734>shops are closingi think this is being underreported. the costs of supplies has skyrocketed and people are now only spending on bare necessities, so businesses are losing money and shutting down.i think the collapse has officially started
>>65272778She needs to get her husband to sign up for the SMO, get money, no problems!
>>65272764My theory: Russian soldiers get a bonus payment for captured drones and that guy was just very stupid and/or drunk.
>>65272764>Get saved by the grace of God>Decide to drag drone that has a live ordinance into your dugout.>It catches fire and explodes. Collapsing the tunnel you were inWhy?
>>65272764I think I can explain it.... It looks like he's trying to remove something at like 6 seconds in? Was he removing wires trying to prevent it going off? Then he pulls it into the dugout because he doesn't want another drone to arrive and hit it and set it off, but as he yanks it, something causes a spark and a fire to ignite and that sets off the explosive?
>>65272734God, I hate this ADHD-esque zoomie edit shit.
>>65272790Russians during mobilisation started sucking dicks before they fled the country though, worse yet they were doing it for free
>>65272798Now I wonder if in the original post every statement was accompanied by a vine boom

>>65272807Do they have gasoline in Georgia?
>>65272790Refinery goes boooom
>>65272813Yep, I think they get it from Azerbaijan
>>65272734Its so strange, i guess i would have had a little bit of sympathy if the Russians hadnt acted like, well russians, for the last 4 years
It pains me that this war has produced such an absurd amount of /k/ino, most of it would slip through and be forgotten... Five years of this on an almost daily basis! Hard to imagine.
>>65272764>Oh whew, we survived the drone>NOT ON MY WATCH>Igor wtf bro
>>65272825My favorite is the guy who had a drone make him a new asshole which he proceeded to use.
>>65272811It does kinda explain the whole "gib ukie clay"-mentality

>>65272855Fuck me this war is just surreal lmao
>>65272881Russia's commercial aviation industry has had its jet fuel supply cut by 1/3 relatively recently. Russia is riding hard on the idea that importing fuel will resolve the lack of gas and various fuels, but I don't think its going to do much especially if Ukraine keeps bombing oil and gas storage silos
>>65272895I guess that means they won't be able to flee for the border again and the October mobilisation will proceed much smoother
>>65272734Haven't seen such a revolting person in a long time.

>>65272899i don't know if another mobilization would work since news of trickling in of some russians resisting the press gangs
>>65272694Is just afterburner comrade, for when you absolutely have to get there on time.
>>65272933>sell crude to india at a steep discount >india refines it>buy it back from india at above market prices i don't know how long they can keep this up since their foreign currency and gold reserves are spent
>>65272943>and gold reserves are spentThat was overreported. They did tap into their gold reserves, but only sold single didget percentage points worth of their gold. Gold is mad expensive.

>>65272694What is the best course of action when you are driving a burning fuel tanker?Do you keep driving until the tank is empty risking brake failure or stop and risk the fuel splashing around the cab?
>>65272955If he had just done the same back when he had legs...
>>65272948that's unfortunate. at least the price of gold is dropping
>>65272935Classic Russian 'not my problem' attitude to that guy. All they want to do is jump in their car and get away, and leave the cripple with the knife to get on with his future endeavours.But why is there a Z truck there? Who painted it?
>>65272796He cuts the wires to the battery which is smart but then lets them short together setting the battery on fire and setting off the bomb.
>>65272963And mind you, just because they have gold worth multiple billions laying around, they cannot sell it all at once to close holes in their budget, and the more they sell the less money they get pound for pound as selling large amounts of gold will decrease the narket value of gold.
>>65272968Yeah thought so.
>>65272734>russia for the last 4 years "We're going to destroy the hohol power grid stupid piggers will freeze!">also russia "why evil nazi jew wect attack poor defenseless puccia's power plants?! Warcrime! Genocide!"And they wonder why they're hated.
>reports that the ziggers are moving RS-24s from the interior to the westanother ICBM tantrum incoming?
>>65272968>He cuts the wires to the batteryi think it's a fiber optic drones and that's what he cut, which is probably why he thought it was safe to handle
>>65272974This stuff moves around all the time, it's like when Americans see a train full of tanks in the US and assume they are going to war.
>>65272957Downshift to slow down, don't hit the brakes too hard.DO NOT jump out while the vehicle iis still moving, because that will result in the burning vehicle/fuel tank rolling past you while you may be on the ground from the fall.Bring the vehicle to a stop, pull the parkinig brake, grab fire extinguisher (vehicle should have one in the cab if it is a fuel tanker), get out and get away.If it's a trailer and you are suicidally brave, disonnect the trailer and get the truck away.The keep driving thing. . .well, if possible, stop the vehicle away from buildings and trees.People have tried driving towards the fire department, whih is brave but really the firefighters can't save the vehicle either way. And I don't think there is a fire departmont on that highway.
>>65272790lol this zigger is seething>/k/opemarker of a mentally ill brown person outside of habitat, back to nu/pol/ with you.
>>65272995Decent plan, also parking it facing up hill so pouring fuel flows away form the cab could help.
>>65273006because fuck anyone behind you, right?
>>65273008Not my problem :^)
>>65273006FWIW, most roads in civilized European countries should be built with a slight curvature towards the sides, just to make sure rainwater flows off.So as long as you park towards the side of the road, teh burning fuel SHOULD flow that way, not towards the drivers side, and then along the side of the roaod into a ditch/gutter etc. that shoould also be there to stop the road from getting flooded by said rain.But that road is Russian built, so who knows.
>>65272764>be in dugout>drone flies into entrance>doesnt go off>but is blocking exit>could try and squeeze by but that might trigger the fuse >try to grab the drone to move it aside or disarm the warhead>ack

The FSB connections were probably at the leadership level in any case.

>Multi-kilometer traffic jams persist at the Kerch Bridge exit from occupied Crimea. More than 900 vehicles are waiting on the Kerch side for manual checks, with an estimated three-hour delay. Schemes published satellite images showing the queue stretching more than 10 km toward Ivanovka, about 1,500 cars. https://t.me/noel_reports/48325Seems like Crimea is self-deporting its zigger population, which should make things easier when Ukraine reinstates the Tarter government there.

>>65273137>900 vehiclesbeing generous and assuming there's 5 people per vehicle and they can clear 300 vehicles an hour (900 vehicles divided by the 3 hour wait), that's 36,000 people leaving per day.

>>65273175>checking doors before I open themouting myself as not being taught about that. Is it about the wind draft, i.e. you don't want to open the door and be engulfed in flames from that room, or not to feed the fire oxygen?
>>65273275https://112.ua/en/rosia-gotue-masstabnu-mobilizaciu-na-zovten-ci-gotova-ekonomika-do-novoi-hvili-171397
>>65273279>you don't want to open the door and be engulfed in flames from that room, or not to feed the fire oxygen?nta, but basically thisunder certain conditions, a fire in a closed room might burn most of the oxygen available, but still have all of the other conditions (temperature and fuel) to develop massively. If you open the door to such a room, you'll probably be hit by what's known as a backdraft. The previously oxygen-starved fire is suddenly fed tons of oxygen, the entire room self-ignites, and you're standing in the only way all of those hot gases have to exit the room.There's some ways to identify such rooms, such as the color of the smoke, or the way the air and smoke behave next to the entrances to said room.
>>65273279the other anon is right, thats the danger with opening doorsIf you do find yourself in a burning house, check doors by touching them before you open, if there is an oxygen starved fire in the room the door will be hot (hotter than expected for a door in a burning building)

>>65272694Bonus points for the burning zigger running away from the truck, but I still prefer the one with the quad carrying fuel getting droned on its rear and the driver speeding the fuck away while leaving behind a huge trail of fire.
>>65272778im thinking, there are many dominoes lined up right now, the slightest movement could create a big problem for russiasee yesterday i was watching a video from SoloFonseca, is an spanish youtuber, very knowledgeable guy, and he basically said the economy situation in russia is very delicate, they may be forced to implement economic measures to avoid a bank run, he compared it to the "corralito" in argentina back in 2001now, to start a bank run, you simply need one bank to be unable give a customer their money, it becomes a chain reaction from theregiven the grave situation in which crimea finds itself in, what if a huge chunk of the 2.4 million inhabitants there try to get their money out of the bank to survive without a regular source of income, or to try and pay for their way out of the peninsula?can the crimean banks deal with 1 million people all wanting to get their money out at the same time? what if they cant? will there be riots? what if the rest of russia see that and try to get their money out too?they are in quite the predicament, russia somehow needs to solve the logistic problem in crimea and the south of Ukraine, they need to increase recruitment to cope with losses, they need to somehow finance the war now that their warchest is near empty and their refineries are on fire and they need to avoid a bank runand basically any action to avoid one of these problems, increases the likelihood of every other taking place, general mobilization will finish off the economy, moving people to convoy duty will deepen manpower issues at the front, trying to replicate a "corralito" will cause mass unrest and force resources out of the front and into internal security, and so on
>>65272734There's something really unhinged about this bitch.
>>65273311This deserves a thread. If Ukrainian weapons have really interdicted supplies to Crimea so completely that it is without fuel and water, it is a giga happening that is underreported. Notwithstanding what it tells us about the operational effects of shaping operations with drones, it is a humanitarian catastrophe waiting in the wings that I am eager to learn more about.
>>65273322Unfortunately, I think Russia can easily clamp down on a bank run and disorder in Crimea. They already some capital controls in place for personal bank accounts and can easily clamp down harder.But the main thing is, Russia doesn't care if their people in Crimea are suffering. They're stuck in there so riots can't spread. Plus, they'll blame Ukraine for the people there starving
>>65273301>the door will be hot (hotter than expected for a door in a burning building)I expect a door in a burning building to be hot though.
>>65273283Where is the information that they plan another mobilization coming from though?
>>65273357hence the "hotter than expected" bit
>>65273362Anon, I am not a walking thermometer, if I touch a door in a burning building it cannot be hotter than expected because I expect it to be very, very, very, very hot.
>>65273345sure they can suppress riots in crimea, the real problem is the bank run, if crimeans cant retrieve their cash, the people of novorossiysk may think they wont be able to retrieve their cash either, triggering another bank run, and so onit spreads, with bank runs you dont want to be the last sucker who didnt manage to get their cash in time and lost everything
>>65273344Check Inside Russia on yt, the dude is legit and he has family on Crimea.He prettty much confirmed all of it. No fuel, little to no food, electrical rationing.
>>65273360Several regions are already doing publicly documented dry runs and the kremlin has put out a press release that discuss these dry runs I believe. The Ukies also apparently have people either inside the Kremlin or know people that talk about it and these informents end up telling the Ukrainians. There's also the factor that its an open secret that the Russians also need to do another round of mobilization or else their front lines will start to collapse due to severe manpower shortages
>>65273377They're unironically spiraling towards desaster right now.Even regions in the far east pay double what they used to for gas and diesel.And the diesel price means the food prices will go up, or the farms go bankrupt. . .or the farms cannot bring in the harvest.
>>65273175>staying low to avoid smoke>get down low and go go go
>>65273307>actual Soviet shitboxes from the 60s.Those old Soviet electric locomotives are certainly pieces of engineering.Finland bought some 25 kV AC units from the USSR during the Cold War. Quite a bit of effort went into making them fit for human use over the years.Originally, the things howled with a sound somewhere between a siren and a wolf when in use due to the horribly inefficient rectifiers and the 40 kW blower fans blasting air through the electrics to keep them from burning. I think they replaced them with western semiconductor parts at some point, which shrunk them to 1/4 of the original size and reduced the heat problems significantly.The ergonomics were also jank as fuck, with weird spring-loaded guillotine windows, heaters with no comfy setting that could melt your boots and burn your feet, and gauges and switches just put whereever they were the easiest to wire. The all-steel cabin was also so noisy that the drivers couldn't hear anything.Coupling the things was also quite a procedure. Wonder how many people were injured doing that over the years.
>>65273236>they will literally keep sending meat waves until the ukies run out of ammo, won't they?Hey, it worked back in the 1940s against a tiny isolated nation of some 3 million wood elves.Too bad putin still hasn't realized ukies aren't alone. They won't run out of ammo.

>>65273367You touch them with the back of your hand, otherwise you may well lose the use of your hand to a burn and thus be unable to escape. If it's more than warm, you need to find another exit. A house being on fire doesn't mean every room is on fire. You generally should not try to escape through a room that has been on fire long enough and intensely enough to make a door handle outside of it hot, unless there are no other options, whether the room is oxygen starved or not. This seems like common sense to me, but a lot of things that seem like common sense are really just things you were taught early and internalised as sensible while young, so idk.

They will likely continue their mobilization and offensives, envisioning a decisive blow—like the Tet Offensive—that would turn the tide of the war, even at the cost of massive casualties.

If you're a Russian strategist, how do you even get out of this situation? The only thing I can think of is to drum up a couple hundred thousand men somehow and go for one final push in the hopes of diverting attention away from the south. Maybe divert AA from somewhere else (like border regions) to try and alleviate the drone spam and hope some -stan doesn't stab you in the back?
>>65273739Kill Putin. Sacrifice your soul to the devil to freeze the frontlines where they are right now.

>>65273739The only real advice is to build a massive style Surovikin line across the front and massively invest in middle strike drones to outrange ukraine. Build advanced layered drone defense including things like bullfrog auto turrets, lasers microwaves and interceptors. You save a ton of man power you can use to further develop and have an edge over any country not actively developing drones in a war zone. Make an analog of the powered JDAM and precision strike all the fortifications Ukraine have
>>65273854>>65273877Very good anon, however I have a bigger challenge. A while back I saw a webm of 3 tunnels or culverts. One of them explodes and a zig gets launched out of one of the tunnels. He stumbles about for a bit before trying to crawl into one of the other tunnels. Which then also promptly explodes. Was titled Zigger Monty Hall Problem or somethingI need to find it
>>65273857It's anything but simple. You are talking about the latest and most rapidly advancing military datalinks on the planet.>>65273865Both sides are far more advanced than that. t. sensofusion
>>65273903>is there a chance it would go off?A nuclear warhead? No.Even if you hit the actual warhead the absolute most damage it would do would be a weak fizzle. And even that is supremely unlikely unless they've been prepared to launch immediately.The rocket fuel and engine? Absolutely.
>>65273914This one?https://desuarchive.org/k/search/image/UC0WLn9vQ_hdATm1C_gxww/
>>65273903>i got a question, what it a ukie drone operator were to hit that? is there a chance it would go off?It's a solid fuel rocket, so there would be some bang and it would make a mess but solid rocket fuel motors are designed to be on fire for a while and direct that fire.Adding additional improvised engine nozzles to the rocket would create some chaotic movement on and around the ground and make a big mess but it wouldn't explode like a bomb.Do you remember that Chechnyan petrol station where a tank ignited and rolled past the person filming at high speed?Something like that probably.

No.>Even if you hit the actual warhead the absolute most damage it would do would be a weak fizzle.......Not if the design is as retarded as what the bongs were doing in the 1950...See: Orange Herald, which contained around 7 critical masses of highly enriched uranium, and had multiple single points of failure, any one of which could result in a multi-kiloton fission detonation.This wasn't an experimental one-off, they put this monstrosity of a warhead into limited production and actual service.Highlights of this weapon's short service history include: Bombs unconventionally arming themselves with the ground crews being unsure or unable to disarm them again. And the bombs being built with improvised electrical systems being cobbeled together from commercially sourced British motorcycle parts.None of this is a joke or an exaggeration.

>>65273842My guess is the Ukies fly in a starlink base station repeater, then the fpvs balloon lofted and make their way toward the repeater on auto-pilot until they pick up the repeaters signal and then go hot.

>>65274161>I guess people forget that self-preservation is number 1 priority for most peopleI do agree, but for AA cover team it was quite inefficient

>>65274075>The gov't in Chisinau doesn't want to take Trannystria by force, because of the insurgency riskNot to mention that they'd be a very hostile zigger voting bloc in their democracy.That's how they're going to get pseudo-autonomy, because nobody wants those traitors voting for zigger stooges in elections.
>>65274130>That is the most horrifying part I've read in relation to atomic bombsI too, lived blissfully under the illusion that implosion-type nuclear weapons relied on a bunch of explosive lenses detonating with perfect timing. That this would make unintentional nuclear detonation a possibility so statistically remote as to be practically impossible.The bongs proved me wrong to a horrifying degree.If the god-awful electrical system malfunctioned, a nuclear detonation could result.If the bomb caught fire, a nuclear detonation could result.If the bomb was impacted hard enough, a nuclear detonation could result.If the big rubber plug in the bottom of the bomb holding in the safety mechanism (thousands of ball bearings) fell out, the bomb was armed, and a nuclear detonation could result.If the plane carrying the bomb was struck by lighting, a nuclear detonation could result.If the plane carrying the bomb crashed, a nuclear detonation could result.If the bomb had to be jettisoned, a nuclear detonation could result.If a discharge of static electricity hit the bomb, a nuclear detonation could result.etc, etcIt was honestly a minor miracle that the bongs didn't accidentally nuke themselves back in the 1950s.Their bombs were that fucking terrible, unreliable, and unsafe.Their nuclear weapons make the Windscale piles look safe and perfectly reasonable from a nuclear engineering perspective, and these reactors were built with practically zero safety measures before they even understood what they were even building or how nuclear reactors really worked.

>>65273751>>65273797>>65273814Rationally I understand why Russians are so retarded and why they do this. But emotionally I still can't wrap my mind around the fact that at no point in these horrible deaths will they ever self reflect and wonder if maybe spending what short time we have on Earth just enjoying life as best we can would've been preferable.
>>65274219>Is there no thought that Transnistria could be given to UkraineOf course not, it's literally Moldovan clay.Moldova's constitution (written by the Kremlin) also forbids foreign troops on their soil, so in theory Ukraine isn't even allowed to help.Ukraine isn't very interested in getting physical there for various reasons though they definitely would be capable of expelling the Russians.The ziggers who are the problem though, would be/are Moldovan citizens. Moldova can't expel them and since Moldova is so small, their effect on elections would be larger than you'd like.You want another corrupt zigger President in the EU?And if Ukraine gets too aggressive about ziggers on Moldovan clay, it would push some segment of Moldovan boomers towards supporting zigger candidates who'd be all like:>we'll stand up to those Hohhols who want to conquer us and who killed our brothers and/or stole their land and made them refugeesMoldova has a communist party who do may day parades etc, they're not huge but they're larger than you'd like. The last election was also a close thing and required judicial intervention.The slow siege strategy that Moldova and Ukraine are cooperating with right now is working, it's just slow. That's for the best really, there's no need to rush this and it gets easier when Russia is weakened by the war or even defeat.

>>65274192It's makes a little bit of sense when you remember that the Brits gave all their research to the Americans under a deal that the Americans would also share theirs, which the Americans broke. So the Brits had half the research, very little money post war and realised that they needed nukes if they wanted to stay even vaguely relevant in the coming cold war. IIRC they also made the single largest pure fission bomb (could almost be classed as a dirty bomb), and it worried the Americans so much that they finally gave them the tech for H-bombs.
>>65274338>IIRC they also made the single largest pure fission bomb (could almost be classed as a dirty bomb), and it worried the Americans so much that they finally gave them the tech for H-bombs.That's the bomb we're talking about here.And the more one learns about it, the more it looks like the yanks started sharing intel with the bongs out of pity, rather than respect.It was, without question, the WORST atomic bomb every built by anyone in history.Even the highly questionable devices cobbled together by south-africa/israel, on a shoestring budget, while under heavy sanctions, was immeasurably superior to the British abomination.
>>65274347>south-africaWhatever happened there? How does a country build a nuclear bomb in complete secret to the point of even detonating one?
>>65274293>sunflower biodiesel for everyone!
>>65274374the French pretty much told them how to make one and build them their dual use nuclear industry
>>65274293Well, that's one way to make demand destruction happen, in a physical sense.
>>65274387Israel also had a hand in helping them from my understanding
>>65274374The south-african government basically outsourced the whole thing to a private company, who in collaboration with government entities and the nation of Israel, managed to build about two dozen gun-type Uranium bombs.These bombs were kinda crappy, but they worked. And they had significant safety improvements over similar weapons like the American Little Boy bomb.Interestingly, the design of the south-african bombs meant that their blast yields would be fairly limited, but they would output an absolute fuck-ton of neutron radiation.So they were among the few neutron bombs ever built, which may not have been intentionalRegadless, these things may not have been able to wipe entire cities from the map in an instant, but thanks to the aforementioned intense neutron radiation, they were theoretically able to wipe out entire armored divisions by frying them alive, straight through the armor of their tanks.
>>65274387No, the French were doing their own thing.They had minimal involvement with the south africans.In typical French fashion, French nuclear weapons are built on entirely different (and weird) principles.The French copy no one, and no one copies the French.
>>65273903Nuclear weapons are so insanely difficult to set off that you can literally detonate a bomb on top of one and all it would do is spread nuclear material everywhere. Same thing as C4, which needs a simultaneous electrical and mechanical pressure impulse from specialized detonators to go boom.

>>65274406A neutron bomb will kill you instantly if your lucky. If you're shielded or "lucky" and only get a massive dose instead of a nearly instantly fatal dose: you get to enjoy an extremely painful slow death over the next few minutes, days or weeks. Best to jump out of your tank and embrace the all-mighty neutron.
>>65274129>Standard-gauge not being standard across all of Eurasia offends my autism.Standard gauge is too small for the modern world, had germany won world war 2 Europe would be covered by ultra wide gauge railroads with passenger cars looking like mississippi river boats on rails. Standard gauge was originally derived from the width between the wheels on a roman ox cart. The earliest railroads lacked locomotives, the rail wagons were pulled by horses, which could pull far more than usual in this setup compared to regular road transport so when railroads were introduced they were just pathways for evolved horse carts. Narrow gauge railroads came about because they were cheaper to make, the cost in these days was primarily in getting men and horses to build the railroad bed out of locally sourced materials. Sunk investment costs and a disinterest in unconventional solutions to an old transport system is what is holding railroads back.

>>65274347>was immeasurably superior to the British abominationBecause Britain was post-WW2 and literally did not have enough food to feed everybody? What kind of retarded point are you trying to make. Building a bomb is really far down on the list, especially when they came up with the idea in the first place.Also Castle Bravo is functionally the worst atomic weapon ever built because a design flaw caused its yield to exceed predictions by 275%. That is objectively the worst one because if you can't get it right, then you're fucking retarded.

>>65274522>Standard gauge was originally derived from the width between the wheels on a roman ox cartackshyually the romans had nothing to do with itstandard gauge originated from the stockton & darlington railway, which used the same gauge as local coal mines' horse drawn networks (slightly widened so the wheels wouldn't pinch as easily in corners) so that they could pull the wagons straight from the mines to the stockton harbor without having to transfer all the coal to different wagonshorse-drawn railway gauges were never standardized and varied by region, but there's apparently a general trend of being around this same width within a few inches, presumably because it's just the optimum size for the beasts to pull; ancient wagons might have therefore been of similar size but that doesn't mean that george stephenson was going around trying to find any surviving examples to measure

>>65274621Is Narva as bad as I've heard it is?
>>65274630I went to the outskirts of Narva in the fall. In the main power plant of Estonia only 2 engineers barely spoke Estonian. The last 50 km of the drive there were depressingly soviet. I thought I was going to get stabbed when I went for a piss in a gas station
>>65274192I love the instructions that said that in case of a catastrophic leak of the bearings, you should use a funnel to pour them back in
>>65274543>I hate how we drip fed Ukraine just enough stuff to not lose but never enough to outright win.Thankfully this will never happen again. Ukrainians had to live through americans either providing them scraps that they could only use every second full moon no closer than 70 football fields to the nearest russian DNA while doing a triple backflip, or not giving anything at all while demanding to be paid for the privilege of providing nothing.Last year of Biden's admin they were already getting fucking fed up with the long range strike limitations and started working on domestic solutions. At this point thankfully the USA has basically no leverage over Ukraine and it can do whatever the fuck it pleases with ziggersAnd just to be clear retrospectively the limp-wristed Democrats were a godsent compared to what Trump & Co. have to offer. Can you imagine if they were in charge in 2022, when ukraine was at its most vulnerable?

>>65274709What I would love to see is webms of the very shills that for years went on and on about "Ukies are press ganging people off the street!" get fucking party v& themselvespottery as they say
>>65273760truly a perfect representation of the SMO
>>65274683I despise Trump for being a fifth columnist and Biden for being a wet rag, but the provision of HIMARS almost certainly saved Ukraine. Lets be fair. Total zigger death began with total ammo dump death

>>65274781You anglos lost your spirit when you let the government dictate minute aspects of your lives. I've been to every part of the anglosphere, and how obsessed you fucks are with licensing, bureaucracy and gay little laws is sickening. Its death by a thousand cuts with paperwork and queuing.Be racist to the pakis. Own and shoot guns. Drink your fucking tea. Your obsession with being proper is rotting you culturally.

>>65273641>>65273410Btw elvira has been MIA for like 2 weeks, she has made no public appearances, some people suspect she and putin have some severe disagreements
>>65275156i thought she showed up a few days ago, was that just a false rumor?
>>65275175actually you are correct, my info was outdated
>>65274421>French nuclear weapons are built on entirely different (and weird) principles.Please do tell
>>65275153Definitely. I would rank food in Melbourne as the best in the anglosphere.Aussies know how to have a good time better than brits and kiwis(just don't OD cause they LOVE drugs)If you know someone local and avoid the tourist traps, it's a blast.
>>65273702>Ukies have been drone dropping booby-trapped medkits and stuff for ages.Why do you lie? We both know that they're dropping booby-trapped dildos
>>65274075>because of the insurgency riskNo, because they don't have either the army forces, additional civilian administrator or even excess money to go into the region and handle it.
>>65274219Ukies don't want it. They'd be willing to remove the local ziggers using force (if Moldova asks), but they view that territory as Moldova.
>>65275156Would.

>>65274293Anon on RU 2ch said that they government secretly allowed oil companies to start adding non-standard and non-proven additives into gasoline to pump up its octane value and such as a way to make more "normal fuel" from "shit fuel". They're joking that soon lead will be added back as well if things continue like this.
>>65274532Meek gay twinks on the inside
>>65274180Dumbass. The fact that you're seeing high quality video stream from their last moments means the datalink was not jammed. Terminal guidance was done by human hands.Image recognition is mostly used on long range strike drones targeting refineries, a much simpler and predictable flight profile than improvised chases of moving vehicles. And that mission profile is already deemed very risky because russian GNSS spoofing could lead to the drones accidentally striking refineries in baltics or finland.
>>65275288>88based dubs.>meek gay twinks on the insideYep, remember these are the "skull and bones" boys who give each other golden showers, while the taker jerks it in a coffin.
>>65273260>>65273256Hey fuck you rats are prim and dignified creatures. They clean themselves, they keep their burrows relatively neat, and they can learn from their mistakes - none of which russians can do.

>>65273799>The great slag Ziggurat of Bakmut?earlier in the war the maps werent updated to show current damage/state of the ground there, but now it is, scrolling around Bakmut and the rest of the front and seeing the endless trenches, craters, scorch marks and just utterly destroyed towns/cities is something to behold.
>>65273739nukes are the only waynuke every inch of ukraine and hope that the rest of the world is scared enough that you can hold onto a deadmans switch forever and basically become north korea but even less popular.everybody else is coping by giving any other answer.
>>65274597>>65274597>>65274621Anon, if you can just tell them to talk to the Dutch, Belgian, French and Gerrman railways.Or maybe the Austrians and Italians. It's a complete clusterfuck, but they do manage.Pic included for humoristic reasoons, many engineers were harmed during the creaation of this picture.
>>65275575They can't do that, Xi told them he'll take Siberia if they nook.

>>65275585>16.7 HzWhat the FUCKI get it's just 50/3 but WHY
>>65275585What is going on with the small bits in the and the dark blue blob UK and Ireland?
>>65275593>but WHYHistorical reasons. When they set up the system (around 1912) they found that 50 Hz caused loads of arcing at the pantograph, and so they went to just one phase of the usual 50 Hz, 3 phase.To be absolutely clear, for the past 35 years or so the onboard solid state equipment of the locomotives makes the whole question a moot point, and for years before that dual system locomotives were common to make cross-border services possible.Which is to say that many modern electric locomotives in Europe are 'tri-system' and can operate in 3 kV DC, 15 kV 16.7 Hz AC and 25 kV 50 Hz AC.It's literally cheaper to build them that way than to retrofit the whole rail electrification.
>>65275631Top right light blue near the Scottish border is for the subway system in Newcastle. Dark blue above Wales is for the tram network in Manchester. No Idea what the fuck the southern dark blue is, unless its for the rail line that goes to Europe through the Channel Tunnel
>>65275639>they found that 50 Hz caused loads of arcing at the pantograph, and so they went to just one phase of the usual 50 Hz, 3 phase.Sounds reasonable. Three phase peak voltage is higher than its RMS voltage which is what you also get from one phase.But you don't magically get one third of the frequency if you take only one of the three 50 Hz wires. You would need additional equipment to convert from 50 Hz or use 16 Hz power generators in the first place.
>>65275662>unless its for the rail line that goes to Europe through the Channel TunnelNo, that uses 25 kV 50 Hz..That area just usses 750 V DC (wikipedia has a couple of pics, it reall is a 3rd rail system like many subwaays use).Regarding that map, there are many trams and subways etc. that are not shown.
>>65275667They used (and in places, still use today) big motor-generator sets to turn the 50 Hz AC from the general net into the 15 kV 16.7 Hz AC for railway use.Today they mostly use cycloinverters (I think that is the correct term)Their reasoning was that this would alllow them to spread the load while drawing power from the net at known points consistently.And in the very early days it also meant the nets were not directly linked, which was viewed as a safety factor.15 kV was chosen because it was considred 'safer' than 25 kV.Sounds quaint today.
>>65275688Today or past, the reasoning isn't sound... Oh well, different circumstances and all that.I'm just happy to see electrical engineers in my country were smarter than that.
>>65275585...OK, now I understand how that subject can give railway autists aneurysms. It makes me curious about things I'm not sure I want to know.
>>65275708There were other considerations, such as remaining a seperate network from existing electricity suppliers.And when this was developed, they were pretty much doing research while building. There was no existinig AC railway system to look at AFAIK.Also, the agreement to use 15 kV at 16 2/3 Hz was signed in 1912.Before there was a unified railway system in Germany, and before the first main line was electrified. After reading through the wiki article it sounds like they spent ten years finding out what didn't work, and then went with 'we have a bunch of big electrical companies telling us this should work let's do it'

>>65276430Figuring out why their country is shit sounds a lot harder than blaming it on America and the West (and then demanding infinite free aid from them forever).
